O.P. 2 suggestions for away statuses
There are 2 things i thought of that might be useful in next version/update of plus!:

-an option to chose whether you want the 'automatically change status after period of inactivity' (in plus!) to either:
     -always change status after that period of inactivity (no matter what your current status is)
     -only change your status when your status is 'online' for that period of inactivity

-and i don't know if this is possible, but perhaps an option to sign in with the same status as your status was before you signed out

there a bit of a waste of time it sets u as a away after a certain amount of time any way so why do u need to do all of that?

Doesn't that contradict your above requested feature...and yeah I suppose an option to only automatically change your status automatically only if your status is something else is a good idea

In theory if Messenger Plus! stored your status at sign off it could change it the second you sign in...Maybe 1ms after but yeah its possible...

Ok, the reason i posted this suggestion is that in plus!2 the status only changed when i was 'online'. But in plus!3 it changes my status no matter what status.
And i like the version that plus!2 used, but i also heard people who like the version of plus!3. So, i thought, why not make it an option, because i heard lots of people about this.
